In conjunction with Management, we have agreed a 6 week trial starting this Sunday 26th April for the use of a condensed 701 Reporting form.

* this form does not replace the SWR standard Reporting form for incidents and delays*

This form has been created for 701 issues and during the trial, solely for Waterloo Drivers.

We're aware that up to now, submitted 701 reports have not been looked at, if the issue has not caused a delay.

We have been assured that throughout the trial, reports will be collated and the issues reported will be looked at.

For 701 issues, please complete the 701 Reporting form and hand into the DRMs / DMs as normal. These will be collated and our expectation is the issues will now be acted on. You can find it in the 4th drawer down in the roster room form rack.

Any questions or comments please get in touch.

We urge everyone to use these new forms and make the trial a success so it can be continued permanently.

Thanks in advance for your help.
